Refers to Warren Hastings, Luke Scrafton, the East India Company and affairs at Murshidabad.

aAfter taking your leave and a long journey I took a boat for Baktarn[?] and from there I departed on Wednesday, 15th Dhu al-Hijjah, reg.yr. 5. As it was raining heavily I was delayed reaching the city and reached Murshidabad when one and four ghari of the day remained. I presented myself at the court of Nawab Nasir al-Mulk Bahadur and made a request to see the Nawab. Now I am waiting for the appointment to see the Nawab. -- Another, contemporary translation of the contents is CC2/1, entry no. 70.

Congratulation on recent well-deserved victories.

Thank you very much for your reply to my letter regarding the case of Qasim Ali Khan who has been sacked from the administration of Chaklah Rangpore. You have advised that the people responsible for Kothi Qasim should get in touch with Qasim Ali Khan to discuss the matter. Meanwhile, Mr Hastings advised him to come and see me and I was able to help him to get his appointment with the Nawab.
